Monaco e Lille dividiram os pontos neste domingo, 25, no estádio Louis II: 1 a 1, pela oitava rodada do Campeonato Francês, em confronto direto pelas primeiras posições da tabela.
Os visitantes abriram o placar no primeiro tempo. Aos 24 minutos, Ethan Mbappe recebeu de Soriba Diaoune e bateu para as redes, premiando a equipe que menos teve a bola.
O Monaco, comandado por Filipe Luís, terminou com 64% de posse e 20 finalizações, mas precisou mexer cedo: aos 15 minutos, Mathys Detourbet entrou no lugar de Ansu Fati. Do outro lado, Berke Özer foi muito exigido e fechou a partida com cinco defesas.
Aos 66, Nianzou Tanguy Kouassi foi expulso em cheio: o Lille passou a jogar com dez.
O Monaco já havia colocado Edan Diop em campo no intervalo, e foi dele o gol de empate: aos 74, Diop marcou após assistência de Jordan Teze. Davide Ancelotti ainda ajustou o time na reta final para segurar o empate, e o placar não se moveu mais.
Com o resultado, os dois clubes chegam a 15 pontos em oito jogos. O Lille segue na liderança e o Monaco aparece logo atrás, em segundo lugar.
O recorte recente é semelhante: nos cinco confrontos mais recentes o Monaco ganhou uma, empatou três e perdeu uma; o Lille, no mesmo período, venceu duas, empatou duas e caiu uma vez.
Na sequência, o Lille recebe o Lens na sexta-feira, 30, e o Monaco encara o Paris FC no domingo, 1º, ambos pelo torneio nacional. Depois vêm os compromissos continentais: na Champions League, o Lille viaja até o Bodo/Glimt no dia 3, e na Conference League o Monaco joga em casa contra o FC Nordsjaelland no dia 5.
